There are many variations of this recipe, but this one is a classic. Think about what you like on a pizza, and add it. Try pesto instead of, or in addition to, pizza sauce for a different flavor.

Roll pizza crust out on a large, flat surface. Spread whipped cream cheese to the edges of the crust. Do the same with pizza sauce and pepperoni. Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese and Italian seasoning.

Roll into a log. Wrap log in plastic wrap, and let chill in refrigerator for at least 2 hours. Remove from refrigerator, and slice into 1⁄2-inch pieces. Lay pieces at least 2 inches apart on a nonstick baking sheet. Sprinkle more mozzarella cheese and Italian seasoning on top of each piece.

Bake about 20 minutes, until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted.
